"Villa Mar y Sol is a towering, white villa located in central Manuel Antonio in a quiet residential neighborhood known for its abundance of wildlife. There are a total of 6 bedrooms divided into 4 apartments--3 of which are in the main home and 1 of which is located under the pool area. They are:
Jaguar - 2-bedroom ocean-view penthouse apartment (upper 3 levels)
Lapa Roja - 2-bedroom treetop apartment (below el Jaguar)
Mariposa - 1-bedroom rainforest apartment (lower level)
Tortuga - 1-bedroom rainforest apartment (below pool)
Each of the apartments is accessed independently and shares an idyllic pool and barbecue area. The infinity-edge pool is expansive, with ocean views and a resort-like feel. There is a gas grill and bar area for your convenience. Lounge chairs, shade sails and a bar area make for perfect relaxation, and a western orientation makes for fantastic sunsets. All around the villa are beautiful, tropical gardens and rainforest.
Villa Mar y Sol is located in Valle Pura Vida, which literally translates as the ‘Valley of Pure Life’. True to its namesake, the area is rife with wildlife and natural beauty. A nearby scarlet macaw reintroduction project funded by the Gaia Hotel means that these giant, exotic and colorful birds are ever-present. It’s also common to see monkeys, toucans, iguanas, sloths and other animals directly from your balcony. If that’s not enough, the villa is also a 45-minute hike to Manuel Antonio’s only real waterfall, and 30 minutes from the area’s more secluded, rocky beaches.
Villa Mar y Sol is ideal for nature-lovers and relaxation-seekers alike!"
